People over 80 don’t have as much of a stake in the future. Maybe they should lose the vote?

Terrorism is an inchoate concept. History is written by the victors. American terrorists dumped tea in Boston Harbor, but they were freedom fighters and revolutionaries because they prevailed. On the flip side, Israel killed a terrorist. How do I know they were a terrorist? Because Israel wouldn’t have killed them otherwise.
Overall, other responders have good answers - equal rights, freedoms, and opportunities. Plenty of bread and circuses. I can’t be motivated to be a terrorist because I would sacrifice too much changing the status quo.
Gvim. I even write documents in it and then paste them into Word for final formatting.
I literally make a new branch. clone, and use an external merge tool (beyond compare) when my branch has fallen too far behind. I don’t trust any of the automated processes.
When bitcoin first came out I looked into out of academic curiosity. I owned a high end video card. I never bothered mining because “I don’t have any desire to buy drugs on silkroad.”
It had misogyny and racism to push it over the top for worst game. ET was just an unplayable mess that disappointed kids my age. Custer’s Revenge is a borderline hate crime that should have gotten everyone involved fired.
I’m not saying there is no reason to be depressed. I’m just saying there is nothing that can be done, so focus on things that make you happy - like dead billionaires trying to visit the Titanic.
Schadenfreude. Learn to take pleasure in things like massive increases in risk making insurance unaffordable for conservative fuckheads in places like Florida. A fancy beach house on Cape Hatteras just fell into the ocean (creating a wave of nasty pollution).
Climate chaos is coming for all of us, and we have done basically nothing to avert it (lots of lip service). 2023 set the record for carbon emissions, at least until 2024 is in the books.
All that is left is to watch the ensuing horrors and enjoy our comeuppance.
Man, if we could only find a video of a dolphin doing a couch. Did I just rule 34 that into existence?
Members of Congress trading individual stocks, bonds, and other investments.
He looks like a nepo-baby with no discernable skills to me.
Separate apps for various retail stores. I don’t want a home depot app. I don’t want a kroger app. We have a generic app for this category called a web browser. If you want me to download a specialized app for your store, I assume that means that my browser does not sufficiently breach my privacy for your “business purposes.”
Big Bosses later ask middle managers: “Why is turnover so high? Are you not fostering a fun environment?” The 40 % raise for job hopping is a real mystery.
Do things that justify the judge being mad at you, get sentenced, point to your own statements and the sentence as evidence of the judge’s animus against you, hope the appeals court buys your argument. 4D chess for pigeons.
Soon it will be a honeypot to filter AI generated applications. I can exclude the resumes of applicants who claim to meet my bogus desired qualification.
I am reminded of Dan Quayle’s “I took Latin in high school.” Offered as proof that he could relate to the Latino community.
Doom scrolling on my phone.
Vscode is my favorite. Now there is a sentence I never expected to type.
I just like usleep better than nanosleep.
Hey! That’s my IP address whenever the script kiddies are boasting in chat. How did he get it?
